Black cardamom is a traditional Indian spice that's been used for centuries to add depth to curries and stews. You're getting a boost of antioxidants and a hint of smoky flavor from the pods, which are harvested when immature and dried to preserve their potency. This is a spice that's been part of human cuisine for thousands of years.
